Letters to the Editor

Letter: Divisions threaten nation

October 4, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

I have come to the conclusion, through various media that I consider trustworthy, that the United States no longer has a two-party political system. I find that our political face now encompasses three parties: Democrat, Republican, and MAGA. Read story

Letter: Support Oneil for utilities

October 4, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

I’m writing in support of James Oneil for public utilities commissioner. James will be an excellent commissioner and will serve District 1 and all of Clark County well in this role. Read story

Letter: Nonprofit leaders earn their keep

October 4, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Regarding Greg Flakus’ apparent complaint (“Nonprofit article is illuminating,” Our Readers’ Views, Sept. 28) about local nonprofit CEO salaries, I read the same Columbian story and came to a different conclusion. Read story

Letter: Golf course sale is shameful

October 4, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

I am disappointed and appalled by the Clark County Council’s secret decision to sell our last public golf course. This is publicly owned land. The outcry should be loud. Read story

Letter: Tolls create resentment

October 4, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Seen all the “No Tolls” signs around town? Nobody really wants tolls, but it looks like we’re doomed. I looked at their site and they have at least one good point. There must be a better way to fund the bridge than tolls. Read story

Letter: Support Keethler in 17th District

October 4, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Suggesting that Paul Harris’ performance over the last 14 years representing the 17th Legislative District in the House is a reason to move him to the state Senate misses the mark (“Elect Paul Harris in 17th Legislative District,” In Our View, Sept. 28). Read story

Letter: Focus on good of immigrants

October 4, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

I think Rep. Marie Perez has her heart in the right place when she talks about making everything better, but her emphasis is all about the border. I think this is unfair when there are so many good, wonderful people that have crossed and done well. Read story

Letter: Reject Initiative 2117

October 3, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Let’s Go Washington, funded by millionaire Brian Heywood, backs Initiative 2117 to overturn the Climate Commitment Act. LGW filed a complaint alleging that Washington state is trying, with $200 refunds already planned, to sway voters to vote “no” on 2117. This, again, is a stunt by millionaire Mr. Heywood to… Read story

Letter: School creates noise pollution

October 3, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Columbia Valley Elementary School was built behind my backyard two years after we moved here. It was decided at that time to place the playground only 50 feet behind my backyard without erecting any kind of noise barrier between us. Because of that, we are subjected to constant noise and… Read story

Letter: Trump would be bad for economy

October 3, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

In October 2020, Donald Trump said of Joe Biden, “If he’s elected, the stock market will crash. If he gets in, you will have a depression the likes of which you’ve never seen.” For the record, four years later the stock market is currently at a record high. Read story
